" Favorite 's Pinot Noir, sourced from two magnificent vineyards on the estate in the heart of the Wairau Valley and Omaka!"

“The 2016 vintage (5*) was aged on the estate in the Raupo Creek and Tatou vineyards. Hand-harvested, it was aged for one year in French oak barrels (7% of which were new), then aged for an additional six months in oak casks, before being bottled without fining or filtration. It has a rich, brilliant color and a ripe, fragrant bouquet. On the palate, it is a well-structured wine with concentrated, vibrant aromas of cherry, plum, and spices; complex and flavorful, with fresh acidity and a fairly firm finish.” (Michael Cooper’s New Zealand Wine Review) • Screw cap

About the wine:

Bright crimson. A soft, floral nose, with a palate that is much softer than the 2017 Leah. The texture is still a bit light. A touch of harshness on the finish. 2022–2027

About the wine:

An elegant and supple organic/biodynamic Pinot Noir with aromas of black cherry, violet, minerals, spices, and dried herbs, supported by a structure of peppery tannins. A subtle wine with underlying power.
